Tasting Notes

Crafted from 100% estate-grown Pinot Noir in California’s Sta. Rita Hills, the 2017 Sea Smoke "Southing" features expressive aromas of dark boysenberry, wild mint, and baking spices layered over a palate of dark berry, cola, and fine tannins. The wine's vibrant acidity and silky structure make it well-suited for pairings with roasted duck, cedar-plank salmon, wild mushroom dishes, and soft-ripened cheeses.
